Recommendations for TV shows to watch while healing?

I was wondering if you all had any recommendations for good tv shows to watch while in this healing process? I feel like some shows are just triggering especially ones with nudity or anything overly sexual for me just end up triggering trauma. Some of my favorites are the office, new girl, supernatural, schitts creek, monk, and psych (also loving the new marvel shows). I’m very much someone who rewatches for comfort. Haha let me know if you have ideas on what to watch next! 😊

Fraggle Rock. Funny muppet show that was created with the deeper message of anti-war and pro-environmentalism. Also my fave movie is Labrinyth by Jim Henson also. The line “You have no power over me” at the end made me release my abusers no longer have any power over me. I repeat it to myself when I find myself thinking about it

My recommendation: The Good Place. It's funny, gives you things to think about, and tackles real shit with the perfect amount of levity.

If you are good with subtitles, I recommend downloading the Viki app and checking out some Korean dramas. Most of them avoid sex scenes entirely, although that’s changing lately with American influence. The shows I’ve watched on there usually have a lot of cute and wholesome moments of friendship and family.

i was going to recommend New Girl but i see that you already have it on your list!! i don’t know if this is up your alley at all, but lately ive been really into trashy reality TV like Survivor or The Circle, it’s a nice distraction from reality!

haha that’s awesome. I call April fools day “prank Sinatra day” now 😂 if you need a good laugh go check out Lamont’s latest Instagram posts. So funny you mention reality tv shows because my therapist told me that watching them might make me feel better about my life 😂😂😂 I told her that’s what I felt when I watched love is blind

I told my husband this was suggested. He’s been trying to get me to watch that show for forever and I’ve always pushed it off 😂 maybe it’s time to start!

If you like cartoons, i personally like The Midnight Gospal (netflix), it has beautiful art and just a relaxing vibe and talks about personal growth, it's good for all ages tbh. Bob's Burgers always makes me laugh when i need it the most, and honestly like the baking competition shows are almost always a go-to for background noise while im just journaling or scrolling on my phone

Oh my bad, probably not Bob's Burgers bc there's some sexual themes but The Midnight Gospal is just perfect for healing times ❤️
